It offers up to 4660 lbs of leveraging, lifting and winching options. Its aggressive 36 sq inch base provides a safe and effective platform, while offering a wide array of rescue options that encompass; 4x4’s, chain & straps, and 360 degree pinnable rotation. The Jack is comprised of powder-coated bright yellow main components with fire red actuating pieces, and has photo-luminescent features for use in IDLH and low light atmospheres.
